Hi,
I am lookign for a subroutine or URL where I can get the code to dinamically update on a menu, the last saved files and show them
Thanks
 
If you're looking for something the last x number of files saved, such as in MsWord under the file menu, there are two ways you could accomplish this:

1. by writing the file name and path to the registry and retrieiving by using the savesetting and getsetting functions, or,

2. a quicker and easier way for me is to write them to a text file in app.path folder for the application, and retrieve it, iterate it, as needed. Plus, I can more easily edit the text file when desired.
